I am using version 140.7.1esr.  For several days now, I have been getting the message ""Enter your password for [email protected]"". I have tried entering the password, but nothing works. My configuration is Windows 10 64-bit,  3 Gmail addresses, 2 Wanadoo addresses and this new Orange address that is causing me problems.  It should be noted that when I got this new address, I configured it in Thunderbird and it worked. Then one day, I got this message. I even changed my email password, but that didn't work. Can you help me?  Thank you in advance. </blockquote> <p>Are you using a password for email apps? </p><p>""Générer votre mot de passe pour logiciels et applications de messagerie tiers"" </p><p><a href=""https://assistance.orange.fr/ordinateurs-peripheriques/installer-et-utiliser/l-utilisation-du-mail-et-du-cloud/mail-orange/le-mail-orange-nouvelle-version/parametrer-la-boite-mail/mail-orange-comment-acceder-a-sa-boite-mail-orange-depuis-une-application-ou-un-logiciel-de-messagerie-non-fourni-par-orange_434630-964290#"" rel=""nofollow"">https://assistance.orange.fr/ordinateurs-peripheriques/installer-et-utiliser/l-utilisation-du-mail-et-du-cloud/mail-orange/le-mail-orange-nouvelle-version/parametrer-la-boite-mail/mail-orange-comment-acceder-a-sa-boite-mail-orange-depuis-une-application-ou-un-logiciel-de-messagerie-non-fourni-par-orange_434630-964290#</a> </p>",sfhowes,false,0,0

In plain text mode, the 'insert' option does not appear on the toolbar. You either need to press the shift key when clicking 'new message' or set the account to compose in HTML at 'account settings' and then in 'composition &amp; addressing.'  If this is wrong, please let me know.  </p><p>Also, although your questions are always welcome, please try to stay within the original thread for continuity. That ensures that the original question is still there, so others who read the forum may be able to also offer suggestions. I do hope we can eventually resolve this for you.

Besides the user ID and password, it could be an incorrect server name or other settings.
